Wow watching the news on the tornadoes, so much destruction ;(. My prayers go out to the people who are having to deal with all the aftermath of these tornadoes.
The pond dig has begun!

It rained hard here on Sat., by the looks of the ponds, I think I got close to an inch of precip, had just put the rain gauge away for the winter last weekend so not positive. Yesterday, during the storms, only got a few sprinkles. Looming clouds for several hours, but produced nothing in the way of moisture to speak of.

After our "big snow" in early January, we finally got rid of all of the snow here on Friday. Went from this ...
To this ... I'm loving this last scene. Can't wait until spring. Daylight savings time starts in just a couple of weeks, which will be nice, too.

Can't wait for the daylight time CE and glad you are free from the snow finally but don't hold your breath yet as it is only February and March and even April have been known to have some tricks up their sleeves
Too early here. Freezes still possible.

Oh yeah, we have our last expected frost something like April 10 or 15 I think. I'm just hoping for no more of the sub zero temps. Have had far too many days of that this year. Must have broken some record for cold days I would guess.

I sure hope I'm not doing it either, JW. It was spitting snow this morning before work, and also on the way home, but nothing to stick on the ground, although it's cold enough. Going down to single digits tonight. Yuck.
